Reptiles & Amphibians Report your sightings! There are various routes for you to report your sightings depending on what sort of record you have. See below for more details: If you’ve simply spotted a reptile or amphibian, and your record is not part of an organised scheme, then you can report your sighting online using the Record Pool. The Record Pool is a collaborative project between ARC and ARG UK, collecting records that would otherwise be lost. The records are made available to local and national recorders for conservation purposes. Not sure what you've seen? Download our amphibian identification guide!
